    First of all main question is what mods you have and how much money you have. IF you have basic bolt ons throwing on a stand alone would just be a waste of money.

        Your best bet with the setup you have is to go with a chipped P06 or P28 and have it street tuned with Crome or somthing like it by someone who knows how. As mentionned a stand alone is a waste of money, unless you are planning some serious upgrades in the future.

          thanks guys for the info. a couple more things. so no standalones. what about a p72 with say hondata s200 how does that sound. a guy in my class was telling me about the p72 and that it has sensors that the p28 doesnt such as knock and stuff like that. is that a better way to go?

            Hondata is expensive, your best bet is to go with either a chipped P06 or P28 and have someone tune it

              from what i saw on there site the s200 isnt that much. would you say to get a p28 or p72 and what about a ems like greddy emanage ultimate?

                You first have to buy it, then you gota get it tuned by someone

                IF your tuner/chipper knows anything, he'd save you some money and turn a p06 into w/e you need.

                Honda knock sensors blow ass anyways. There's no need for them, especially if you're going to get it tuned.

                Hondata is pretty much a standalone.

                Greddy emanage blows, especially for NA honda's.

                Search Crome(not chrome).

                Read the links in my sig about tuning/chipping.

                  nice write up man thanks the down side is i have a p13 so either way i need a new one. and hondata is a standalone? doesnt it have the afr,vtec controller 2 stage launch? rev limiter? just wonderin if i have things mixed up about what these are again sorry i am really new to this stuff.

                  and so is chipping an ecu the same as runnning a piggy back system just the piggy back makes it easier to work with for people like me?
                  thanks again for all the help!

                    You chip an ecu for Hondata, just add some extra components.

                    But all those features(rev limiter, vtec controller..etc.) are features you have to pay extra for. NOTHING is added to the ecu. It's a code you get from Hondata and you enter it under the settings in the Hondata program.

                    Chipping an ecu is NOTHING like a piggy back. It is very comparable to a standalone.

                    Pretty much, when you chip your Honda ecu and use a program(hondata, crome, uberdata, neptune, ectune) you are editing the code. Some of the higher end programs are more like standalones because they actually manage your engine, instead of just read what you edited.

                      so you think i would be better off to just chip the ecu and run a program on that and that would just adjust everything but with a piggy back i can manage everything a bit better?

                          thanks alot for the info guys!
                          what would be a better ecu to chip for my cb7 with h22a
                          p28 or p72?

                            Doesn't matter. The difference between those are the knock sensor and the IAB function(with the p72). The p28 has neither.

                            Like I said before tho, if youre tuner/chipper knows anything, he could add anything you wanted to any ecu.

                            Piggybacks don't manage anything. They add fuel, that's it really.
